Denna kandidatuppsats undersöker en direkt aktion mot brännvinsbrännerier som genomfördes i Karlshamn, november 1853. Den arbetande befolkningen i staden var vid denna tid mycket upprörda över det faktum att de lokala brännvinsbrännerierna fick fortsätta att köpa upp och bränna spannmål och potatis, trots den ständigt ökande bristen på livsmedel. Genom att tillämpa den brittiske historiken E.P. ThThis thesis aims to investigate a case of worker’s direct action against distilleries of hard liquor (brännvin) in the southern Swedish town of Karlshamn, November 1853. Many people were angry because the distilleries were allowed to keep on distilling grains and potatoes despite the constantly increasing shortage of basic foodstuffs. By applying English historian E.P. Thompson’s theory of “the mo

The increase of shrub extent in arid and semi-arid environments is reducing the species richness all over the globe. This process of shrub encroachment was found to result from changes in anthropogenic land use, especially from too high or too low grazing intensity. The Great Alvar on the island Öland, Sweden, is a unique grassland ecosystem with a high species richness. Changes in land use patte

Bilars globala miljöpåverkan är substantiell och kommer alltid vara i fokus när man diskuterar klimatförändringar och vårt koldioxidavtryck. Eko-körning har länge bara varit ett givet antal av riktlinjer åt förare, om till exempel mjuk acceleration. Vi ville utforska användningen av maskininlärning för att identifiera och lära okända körmönster som kan påverka bränsleåtgången. Vi ville också utfThe global environmental impact made by cars is substantial and will always be in focus when discussing climate change and our carbon footprint. Eco-driving has long been a given set of general rules for drivers to follow such as smooth acceleration. We wanted to explore the use of machine learning to identify and learn unknown driving patterns that may affect the fuel consumption. We also wanted
